Chapter 334
Hearing Harvard Sun's words, everyone could not help but nod. They thought that Shinnie Sun and Edward Sun should be willing to sacrifice themselves.
Then, Nathaniel Sun's eyes lit up and he said excitedly, "This marriage with the Zhan Family is a huge advantage for our Sun Family."
When the advantages were mentioned, the eyes of all the people there suddenly lit up, and their tones also became excited.
Harvard nodded and said, "Yes, indeed. The Zhan Family is very powerful in South Hanover City. More importantly, the military background of the Zhan Family is absolutely a huge force, which will be of great benefit to our Sun Family in the future."
Susanna Yang nodded and continued, "This time, we have promised them that Shinnie will get married to Quintus Zhan. The Zhan Family has promised to collaborate with the Sun Family in business. In the future, they will also put in a good word for our family in the army."
"In my opinion, the most important thing from this relationship with the Zhan Family is their
connection to the army. In this aspect,the Sun Family is vulnerable. Since the return of our elder, our Sun Family has developed rapidly and advanced rapidly in the martial-arts. We have become the most powerful family in Long City and the strength of our martial-arts skills has reached its peak."
"Now, it is important for us to expand our relationships and make more connections. The Zhan Family members are not the real military members, but they have a close relationship with the army. For our Sun family, this is a good starting point to build something,"
Nathaniel said. He acted as though he had a well-thought-out plan. He smiled and spoke with fervor and confidence, looking extremely confident and happy.
Harvard nodded and said, "Nathaniel's words make a lot of sense. Next, we will collaborate with the Zhan Family. Building a good relationship with the military will be the next mission of our Sun family ."
They were eagerly discussing the benefits gained from the Sun Family's cooperation with the Zhan family this time, as well as their future development prospects.
But they seemed to have forgotten that the so-called benefits would depend on the happiness of a young girl's life.
They were a group of cold-blooded human beings. In their eyes, they only thought about the benefits and nothing else.
As Edward heard their discussion, he had already walked to the door at this moment, looking extremely gloomy.
He was so furious that he kicked open the door of the living room and walked over with vigorous strides.
Shinnie, who was biting her lip and had a determined expression, followed Edward and entered the room.
Their entrance interrupted the discussion in the room, and then they looked at the two people who came in with surprise.
"Shinnie, why are you back?" Yannie Sun looked at Shinnie in surprise.
Hearing these words, Edward's head was about to explode. He stepped forward, slapped Yannie's face, and shouted coldly, "How dare you ask this question. As Shinnie's cousin, you actually deceived her and pushed her into the mouth of the evil wolf. Are you still human?"
Yannie didn't know the last time she was slapped in this manner. She suddenly got angry and stood up. She confronted Edward and said, "As unimportant members of our family, you have been eating our Sun Family's food and stayed in our residence for so many years. What's the problem with sacrificing Shinnie now?"
"Why don't you sacrifice yourself instead of Shinnie!" Edward shouted angrily.
Yannie glared at him and said, " I am an important family member. You all are just unimportant members."
"You..." Edward's eyes suddenly turned scarlet, and his eyes were full of anger.
There were many family members and relatives of the family in the room. When they heard this, their faces couldn't help but change.
Seeing that things were not going the right way, Nathaniel pulled Yannie down. He got up and said with a smile, "Uncle Edward, you think too much about this matter. It's not as bad as you think. It's a good thing that we let Shinnie join the Zhan family!"
"After all, the Zhan Family is the second largest family in South Hanover City, and they have a lot of power behind them. Even compared with our Sun Family, they are not too far behind. It is her fortune that she can marry into such a powerful family. After all, not everyone has the opportunity to be the young madam of the Zhan Family."
Nathaniel's shameless expression caused Edward to become even angrier. "You're right. Who doesn't know this? The Zhan family is really powerful, but don't you know what kind of person Quintus is? He is a playboy with a strange temperament. Asking Shinnie to marry such a person is pushing Shinnie into the bottomless abyss to suffer, isn't it?"
"What's more, Shinnie is now an adult. She has her own ideas, and who she has feelings for. You can't force her to marry someone she doesn't like," Edward roared angrily.
Shinnie also sobbed and said at this moment, "It's, it's not that I don't want to contribute to the family. It's just that I don't like that person, and I don't want to go to the Zhan Family."
Edward's roar and Shinnie's faint sobbing suddenly caused the atmosphere in the room to tense up. Some of the members of the Sun Family lowered their heads and looked sullen at this moment, contemplating the issue in their mind. This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
At this moment, many people looked at Edward and Shinnie differently. They felt their pain. If this kind of thing could happen to Edward and Shinnie, then it could also happen to them.
The sound of chattering broke the silence all of a sudden.
Harvard, who was a senior in the Sun Family, noticed this and his face fell. He snorted and said, "Everyone keep quiet!"
All of a sudden, the scene simmered down.
Then, Harvard glared at Edward and said in a deep voice, "Edward, Shinnie, as members of the Sun Family, you are unwilling to contribute to the family due to your own selfish interests. Do you still think that you are right ?"
"You have to know that the matter of contributing to the family is greater than the will of Heaven!"
"Now, I'll give you one last chance to accept the family arrangements. I can pretend that nothing happened just now. Otherwise..." Harvard snorted heavily, and his tone was pressurizing.
Edward's eyes were full of disappointment when he heard this. He shook his head and smiled, saying, "I'm so stupid. I have been waiting for a long time, and I was hoping that you may consider
the benefits of having us as your family members."
"I know that I am wrong now. In your eyes, we are not family members at all. We are just tools that you can use."
"Tools!" Harvard frowned. "I'm doing this for the sake of my family. You..."
"Don't spout nonsense!" Edward shouted and interrupted Harvard's words. He yelled, "You're talking about the benefits for the family, but in fact, it's only the benefits to the important members. You intend to sacrifice the interests of other unimportant members for the family and for yourself. I want to ask you, do you think that we don't belong to this family? Are our interests still considered to be part of the interest of the family?"
Hearing such shouting words, Harvard's face also changed.
Many members and relatives of the family shifted their expressions at the moment. As they thought about Edward's words, the expressions on their faces kept changing.
